Annenberg gives USC $120 million
New center for communication research, study to be founded from largest donation in campus history,
By Lisa Heimlich
Co-Editor
In what University President Steven Sample called a "harnessing of the full power of communication," Walter H. Annenberg has pledged a gift of $120 million to USC, the largest cash donation ever to an American university, extending research and development in five communication-related departments on campus.
The entire gift donated by Ambassador Annenberg totals $365 million and will also fund three other educational institutions — the University of Pennsylvania, also receiving $120 million, Harvard University, which will receive $25 million, and the Peddie School in Hight-stown, N.J., an independent secondary school which will receive $100 million.
At a press conference Monday, Sample announced that the gift, plus the interest generated during the first few years, will create a $150 million endowment to launch a new Annenberg Center for Communication.
This interdisciplinary program will bring together undergraduate and graduate students and faculty from the existing Annenberg School for Communication, the schools of cinema-television, journalism and engineering, as well as the de-

"(The gift) establishes a whole new level of philosophy for American education," Sample said. "It is also an important time in history for others to make very large cash gifts to education in this country.
The new center, which will have the same status as LAS and the 18 professional schools within the university, will have one director overseeing the entire venture.

His late wife, Grace Ford Salvatori, had a long-time association with JEP.

very instrumental in starting the Extraordinary Community Service Award. She and Barbara Gardner, who founded JEP, came up with the idea that students should be recognized for their service."
Salvatori said his wife worked to tie the university with the surrounding community.
"We need to bring various groups together, trying to understand each other so we can live together," he said.
Anderson said she sent a letter to Salvatori asking for advice after she was (See JEP, page 3)

By Tracey M. Taylor
Staff Writer
This weekend marks the beginning of the annual Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Pride Festival. And this year, a little bit of the Trojan Family spirit will be thrown into the mix.
USC's Gay and Lesbian Assembly for Student Support (GLASS) has designed an entry for the parade, the centerpiece of the weekend's activities.
This year's parade theme is "A Family of Pride." The parade will begin at 11:00 a.m. Sunday along Santa Monica Boulevard in West Hollywood.
In tune with the overall parade theme, the individual entry GLASS will sponsor is titled, "A Trojan Family Outing." The performance will be coordinated by students Ricardo Aldape, Jr., Jay-zen Patria and Mark Arteaga.
Patria and Arteaga are GLASS student representatives who choreographed the GLASS entry in this year's Songfest production at the Embassy Theatre. Approximately 20 to 30 students and alumni will participate in their festivities.
GLASS will be sponsoring two float units with a "Copacabana" / Carnival theme. Crews of dancers with blaring Latin music will decorate the floats, with a special appearance by Carmen Miranda.
